Keyan and Jaso are the best hosts I've ever stayed with! They went above and beyond my expectations and made me feel like home. The room was extremely comfortable, clean and tidy. Extra points for the super cozy bed! The location, the vibe, the welcoming that I experienced staying here will definitely make me want to come back everytime I visit helsinki. The bus stop and supermarket are all very close-by and it was one of my most pleasing experience to stay here. Cheers!! <3

8.1 km from Telia 5G Areena in Helsinki, Kalle's unluxury guest house Aircon 15min city center by train provides accommodation with access to a sauna and hot tub. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the guest house free of charge. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available.

It is very convenient in terms of location as the train and bus stations are very close to the house. Easy access to nearby restaurants and supermarkets. For the house, it is cozy and it has all kinds of tools that you need. The bed is comfortable; it comes with a supportive mattress. Most importantly, the landlord is very responsive and helpful, always willing to offer a hand. I would definitely pick this house again in the future. (Too bad that I've forgotten to take some good pictures for the house...)

    ' The Yard is lovely hostel with a cosy, friendly and sociable vibe. Great location for accessing the city, and it’s so easy to get about using trams and buses - just don’t forget to get a pass in advance (download the HSL app an d purchase the required tickets).
